We want to save the old Royal Alberta Museum, perhaps even re-zone the site to allow for housing to support whatever retail, gallery or recreational businesses go in the building. #savetheoldRAM

A whirlwind day for the Heart Bombs on the old RAM. Less than 24 hours after we put them up - they had been taken down.

It seems the honest sentiments of the Heart Bombs were not allowed. We will not be deterred.

Epic Heart Bomb in the cold yesterday. Thanks to all who came out and those who sent their names in.
“They're still there--the more than 200 Hearts that we posted this morning, are still adorning the fence tonight. It was cold, today… thanks to all for their support and hearts.” #savetheoldRAM
